the dignity of man
 Yes, it's time once again for another exciting installment of Naked Proto-Nazi Germans Move to California!
In Paradox of Plenty: A Social History of Eating in Modern America, Harvey Levenstein writes (p.165, the time is circa 1970)... There were already three-hundred-odd health food stores and twenty-two organic restaurants in southern California alone. No wonder an Organic Gardening and Farming writer called it "a food shoppers paradise." Hugo Hoeppener (a.k.a. "Fidus"), painted that thing to the left, titled Lichtgebet (Prayer to Light) in 1894. He was a big fan of theosophy, racial purity, whole foods and frolicking naked in the woods. The painting adorned Martin Bormann's office during the Third Reich, which was big on Aryan tits and ass. Achtung, baby.
